Okay folks, keep the support going. Still working on the Monolith, but haven't had time due to a recent war dec.

And now that I'm finally done with the Monolith, I can do this.

For those who don't want to go back a few pages:

Monolith

Pelican

Bedouin

Pillar

Now a thing to keep in mind, is these are very rough designs based off of the original freighter hulls, and were put together on MS Paint, so not exactly the best medium to work with. But all four of them are finally done, so discuss, and contact your CSM reps to let them know we want these.

Just think of the possibilities:

Open up another sub-career.

Revolutionize logistical applications for operations.

The waves of tears from the ship pilot when it is destroyed and ships pop out of the wreckage.

All in all, I think this is needed, and if you do too, contact your CSM.

To keep this going, we're going to need continued support, and it needs to stay in the eyes of the players.

My Obi can hold 900Km3, just give me the ability to put fitted ships in there and I'm happy.

The need for this can be explained with the following bullet points:
- New Ships create need for minerals to be harvested, thus giving Industrial pilots more options on ship builds
- New Ships create new targets (particularly lucrative ones) for pirates
- It is a nice ISK sink (purchasing BPOs from the NPC corporations)
- It is a nice mineral sink (as it would technically be a capital ship much like freighters)
- It would enhance the capabilities of ship production corporations to move vessels they have built
- It would enhance actual logistical capabilities of corps engaged in numerous types of operations
- It would allow for people to move their base of operations quite easily
- It would make ship-hauling contracts much simpler
- It would open up a new sub-career for haulers
- It would allow for neutrals to move combat vessels for corps/alliances engaged in wars (for a steep price)
- It would create many, many tears to be collected if destroyed and allow for the chance of a carried ship to be dropped in space

I like. People in the past have claimed that courier contracts are the solution to shipping rigged ships via freighter. That argument is flawed as you cannot issue a contract to yourself.

Actually, you can. You set it to "your corp" and then you can accept a courier you made.

How many battleships would it have to carry to be better the just shuttling over and flying them back? Freighters align and warp slow. If the new freighter could only carry two, it might not be an actual time saver. Three may be better, but not by much. So it may have to be able to carry 4 to really be an advantage over just making more trips.

Interesting idea. Not sure if I would like for it to be a freighter class ship though.

For it to be capable of transporting the amount of cargo that 3-4 battleships would take up it needs to be.
